Chapter 825: Riding and Shooting
“What?” Gu Ning almost spat a mouthful of tea out.
Did she look like an alien? Well, she was indeed very different from other people.
“I don’t think so,” Qi Tianlin joked.
“You’re just jealous of my talent,” Gu Ning said.
“Narcissist,” Zi Beiying retorted.
“I have the ability to be proud of myself. Do you?” Gu Ning argued. “If you want to show off your family background, forget it, I never respect those who rely on their families. I challenge you to compete against me with your own ability.”
Although Gu Ning didn’t know Zi Beiying’s family background yet, she knew that she couldn’t be an ordinary girl given Qi Tianlin’s polite att.i.tude towards her.
“I won’t rely on my family’s influence!” Zi Beiying said.
Gu Ning smiled, but didn’t say another word.
“Alright, I got the money, so I should leave now,” Gu Ning said and stood up.
“Wait a second.” Zi Beiying stopped her.
“What?” Gu Ning looked at her with interest. She understood that Zi Beiying wasn’t willing to be a loser.
“I want to compete with you again. Riding and shooting, what do you think?” Zi Beiying said. She refused to believe that Gu Ning could do everything. Zi Beiying was born in a munitioner family, so she couldn’t be more familiar with guns. Shooting was super easy in her eyes.
“It’s already dark.” Gu Ning pointed at the sky out of the window.
“We can do it tomorrow,” Zi Beiying said.
“How much is the bet?” Gu Ning asked. She wouldn’t do it without a bet.
“Ten million yuan,” Zi Beiying said.
“Great.” Gu Ning took out her name card from her backpack, and gave it to Zi Beiying. “Call me when you set the time, but you better set it in the morning, because I’ll be busy in the afternoon.”
Today was Thursday, so tomorrow was Friday, and the day after would be Sat.u.r.day when the National High School Math Compet.i.tion was held. High school students around the country would come to City B tomorrow, and Gu Ning had to join them.
“Sure.” Zi Beiying took her name card. After that, Gu Ning swaggered out, like it was her place.
…
Qi Tianlin said to Zi Beiying when Gu Ning was gone, “Since she agreed, she has to be confident that she can win. I know that you can afford the result, but I still need to remind you not to take revenge if you really lose the game. If you want to beat her, it must be above board. You have a powerful family, but she isn’t someone to be trifled with either.”
Gu Ning’s family probably wasn’t as powerful as the Zi family, but she would do everything to protect herself. If Gu Ning wanted to kill Zi Beiying, it wouldn’t be difficult.
Zi Beiying didn’t feel displeased hearing that, because she knew that Qi Tianlin said that to her out of kindness, and she wasn’t narrow-minded. Gu Ning was just her opponent, not an enemy.
Although Zi Beiying panicked a little after Gu Ning accepted her challenge with alacrity, she couldn’t take her words back. If she did that, it would be more humiliating than losing the compet.i.tion.
